Just in case you were on the fence with buying an Xbox 360, Xbox has sweetened the deal, with the Game of the Year bundle. You can get an Xbox 360 Elite and either a copy of Halo 3 or Fable II. The bundle will run for a cool $399.99.
Beginning in May, fans can enjoy the premium experience of Xbox 360 Elite with two highly-acclaimed Xbox 360 exclusive games, including “Halo 3,” the thrilling conclusion of Master Chief’s epic fight against the Covenant and “Fable II,” the masterful role-playing sequel with limitless choices and consequences. These two Games of the Year award winners combined with an Xbox 360 Elite console make this offer the definitive choice for anyone who wants a complete gaming and entertainment experience. The Xbox 360 Game Of The Year Bundle will be available for a limited time and will come at no additional cost, estimated retail price at $399 (U.S.)
This is actually a pretty good deal considering these are two exceptional games for the price of free. Even though the games are a little dated, Halo 3 remains the top played game on Xbox Live and Fable 2 has a huge replay value. This is a limited time offer, so I guess buy it soon.
Definitely a sweet deal for people getting in on an Xbox 360 at this point. You have to wonder, though, as these are aimed more at the core gamers and not casual, especially with 2 M rated games. Most core gamers that want a 360 have one at this point.
